CHARLESTON, May 14.-But eight innings
of to-day's game were played before dark
ness came on. The attendance was good,
but the game lacked interest, owing to its
one sidedness. The visitors chalked up s
errors in the first three innings, while
Charleston made II runs After that they
pulled themselves together and played in
better form until the eighth inning, when
they went to pieces completely. The follow
ing is the score:

The average rainfall Tor May IN the last
fifteen years is little over inches The
rainfall for the first fourteen days of this
month is only trife over half an inch--not
one-fourth the average rainfall. This gives
good idea of what vegetation has had to
endure. The signal men are looking for a
break in the drought very soon.
There is another danger when the
rains do set in, and that is, if
the rainfall is too heavy, the fields will be
flooded and potatoes and other crops will
rot badly. If light and frequent showers
are had during the rest of the month they
will do the most good

not permitting stable-boy, the owner cares
for him himself, and says that, in fact, he
prefers to do so, hired hostlers being prone to
neglect and abuse the animals in their
charge. Such grooming no horse save one
under parallel conditions of life was ever ia
vored with. He is fed with the best the
market affords; he is brushed and combed and
rubbed until his coat shines like silk.
The carriage is washed carefully, and the
harness not permitted to grow rusty In re-
turn for this care the horse is expected to do
his duty, and nobly does he respond to the
demands He takes the master to his Office,
the mistress to market and on her rounds of
shopping and calling; he carries the family to
school, to church, or wherever they wish to be
conveyed-to patronize the street cars when
one has horse is useless extravaganza, and
when one has horse who would walk? He
is continually on the go, and the neighbors
begin to make invidious remarks concerning
overworked nags. The conversation of the
owner at this period partakes of thorsey"
character; he narrates little anecdotes be-
ginning, GAS was driving down town this
morning." and takes frequent occasion to
fer carlessly to "a horse of mine" This alb
sorption in and thorough enjoyment of the
equine possession lasts on we'll through the
season; but before the summer is ended
slight dminution in the measure of attention
bestowed upon the animal is discernible. His
coat lacks somewhat of his early glossiness.
On rainy days he is not taken out of his stall,
experience having shown that, otherwise, a
rainy day is followed by much unpleasant host
Ter work. When November and the time for
going into winter pasture arrives the owner
is secretly conscious of a feeling of relief.
Next spring he has boy engaged to look
after the animal. He drives to and fro as in
the former season, being, however, rather less
mindful of rainy weather, but his sense of
citation and superiority has gone. Now and
then he even walks from choice. Next year
the horse is boarded at a livery stable, the
care and trouble of having him on the prem
ises being, it is resolved, to great for the bene-
fits received. This season it may be noticed
the owner is rather more sure to have his con-
veyance brought out in the rain than at any
other time. "Why save the beast at the ex-
pene of our own comforts" he argues reason
ably enough.
The time comes, perhaps, when the citizen
has not one horse, but two or more, and
employs groom and coachman; but when
that day arrives he is no longer resi-
dent of the modest cottage the out
of-the-way street, and consequently has
little sentiment in common with the old-time
owner of the 'family horse" No teams or
turnouts acquired in later years can give the
deep joy and contentment afforded by the
horse of suburban days. That was an animal
with charm exclusively its own.

THE SUBURBAN HORSE.

1t is the ambition of every normally con-
stituted citizen of indianapolis to own a
"family horse" When the citizen as a
family man." takes up his abode in modest
cottage in the outskirts of town, he consoles
himself for the inconvenience of the loca-
ton by the thought that all these will vanish
when the horse is acquired. Until the time
arrives when his finances will permit the
luxury he depends upon the unsatisfactory
and exasperating street cars or laboriously
"foots it - to and from his place of business
When finally the day comes that the purchase
is made the height of suburban felicity is
reached. The horse is proudly driven up to the
front gate; the family, including the baby, the
servant girl and the dog, came out to inspect
the new addition to the domestic menage;
the owner, with a visible effort to conceal
his exultation, steps about tightening
buckle here. loosening strap there and de-
scanting with great eloquence upon the
it's of the steed and the superiority of this
particular style of carriage over any other in
the market. With much fiuttering and COM
motion the mamma and all the babies enter
the vehicle, and the citizen drives ostenta-
tiously down the street, followed by the eyes
Of neighbors envious or frankly admiring, as
b the varying case with neighbors. Never
again in his career does the suburban resident
experience of Importance and gratifed
ambition SO ecstatic as that which swells his
soul on this occasion
Nothing is too good for that horse; finance

There is something truly wonderful about the

press car several hundred miles, over a dozen

of knowing anything of the country through

going, they released from their prisons
and straightway without any hesitation, begin
their Decline Journey home. What mysterious
power directs their fight Many theories have
been advanced. Signat-service Observer David,
who released those recently sent from Phliadel-
phia seems TO think the most plausible theory
is that the birds controlled by magnetic cur
rents very much magnetic needle is con-
troled. A sort of an indehnable something
noints out to them the way in which they should

not At any rate these beautiful birds furnish

THE secretary of the church extension board
of the Methodist Church South, whose head
quarters are at Louisville has recently returned
from trip to southeastern Kentucky in the in
terest of church extension. That is rough and
inaccessible region, and the secretary s report
shows a deplorable condition of affairs in respect
of church accommoda tions. Many towns and
neichborhoods that had church congregations of
some denomination, and regular or occasional
preaching, had no church building. Out of
seven county-seats visited by the
tary, FIVE have not and never had
a church edifce of any sort with
in their corporate limits. One of these towns
was established sixty-seven years ago, another
forty, another about thirty, another about ten
and the last about three years ago. In the
country traversed by the secretary he saw out
side the towns but three or four church build
ings, and these owned by the Primitive Baptists,
whose Pickering light is little else than a sample
Of DISTINGUISHING civilization. That section of
country seems to offer inviting field for mis-
sionary work.
